Genome Sequence of Lysobacter sp. Strain BMK333-48F3, the Producer Strain of Potent Lipopeptide Antibiotics of the Tripropeptin Family.

Lysobacter sp. strain BMK333-48F3 is known primarily for its production of the antibiotically active tripropeptins. Here, we report its draft genome sequence, which will give insight into the biosynthesis of tripropeptins and enable genome mining for further secondary metabolites.

The Draft Whole-Genome Sequence of the Antibiotic Producer Empedobacter haloabium ATCC 31962 Provides Indications for Its Taxonomic Reclassification.

Strain ATCC 31962 was formerly taxonomically classified as Empedobacter haloabium and reported to be the producer of the lipopeptide antibiotic empedopeptin. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of ATCC 31962, which encodes regions that suggest a distinct biosynthetic capacity and suggests its taxonomic reclassification.
